The right ventricle (RV) has historically been given less importance than the left. There are important anatomical differences, including several intracardiac structures that may complicate echocardiographic assessments. The right heart is sensitive to changes in pressure and its function is affected by common interventions in critical care such as ...

Angiographic right and left ventricular function in arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia
The American Journal of Cardiology, 2004We prospectively documented right ventricular (RV) and left ventricular (LV) volumes and ejection fractions in a large series of patients with arrhythmogenic RV dysplasia/cardiomyopathy (ARVD/C). Eighty-five patients with ARVD/C and 11 controls underwent 2 successive orthogonal right and left monoplane x-ray-digitized cineangiographies.

Right ventricular function in Steinert's disease
International Journal of Cardiology, 2013Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (MD), also known as Steinert's disease, is the most autosomal dominant muscular dystrophy in adults with a prevalence of 1 to 8000 individuals (1). This disease is characterized by a multisystem disorder. MD is caused by a CTG expansion in the 3'- untranslated region of a protein kinase gene.

Noninvasive Evaluation of Right Ventricular Function
Clinics in Chest Medicine, 1987Numerous technologic advances have greatly facilitated the noninvasive analysis of right ventricular function. Nevertheless, important clues continue to be available to the astute clinician by physical examination. The chest x-ray is of rather limited utility.

Right-ventricular function by nuclear cardiology
Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2010Right-ventricular (RV) function has both diagnostic and prognostic relevance; thus the ability to accurately evaluate and quantify the RV is critical. Nuclear techniques provide an accurate and reproducible assessment of RV systolic function. Additionally, nuclear techniques can assess RV physiology, thus providing insight into the pathogenesis of ...

Right ventricular function in Chagas disease
International Journal of Cardiology, 1983To study right ventricular function, we performed cardiac catheterization, and right and left cineventriculograms in 60 chagasic patients and 15 non-chagasic, non-heart disease patients. Chagasic patients with normal electrocardiograms and left cineventriculograms also had normal right ventricular function.

Assessment of Right Ventricular Morphology and Function
Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2003The assessment of right ventricular morphology and function is of clinical importance in patients with pulmonary disease. Until recently the evaluation of the right ventricle was difficult because of the unusual geometry of the right ventricle. This chapter discusses the various diagnostic modalities available for assessment of right ventricular ...

It is only relatively recently that acute right ventricular dysfunction has been recognised in critically ill patients and has been considered to be an important determinant of the overal effect of acute illnesses, especially respiratory failure, on the circulation.

Right ventricular function in the human fetus
Journal of Perinatal Medicine, 2001Fetal RV function is critical for survival and normal cardiovascular development. Doppler can be used to assess function. Combined with wise use of imaging techniques, the cause of abnormalities can be assessed. Both congenital heart defects and other cardiovascular defects can lead to hydrops and death.

Methods of Assessment of the Right Ventricular Function
Kardiologiia, 2015The review contains contemporary data of assessment on right ventricular (RV) function by various instrumental methods of investigation. Among all these methods multispiral computed tomography (MSCT) appears to be most perspective. Accuracy and reproducibility of measurements of RV function by MSCT and comparable with those of magnetic resonance ...
